	The game is noticeable for two things - the realistic tactics used by the fire team and the psychological model for friendly and enemy AI which can cause rise and drop in morale, as well as the ability to persuade enemy forces to surrender. Also, if one of your Marines dies, the game ends, and if one is severely wounded; he cannot get back into combat but will be replaced by calling for a naval corpsman to retrieve him. If two teammates are severely injured, the mission will also end due to lack of manpower to continue. Retired and active duty US Marines who fought in Fallujah were consulted during development.

	''Close Combat: First to Fight'' (and the Wii port ''Marines: Modern Urban Combat'') is a 2005 video game developed and released by Destineer Studios. The game is set in Beirut in 2006 amid a fictional crisis sparked by the emergency evacuation of the Lebanese Prime Minister and resulting in the Iranian and Syrian-backed local militia taking control of the city streets. As the conflict escalates, United States Marines are inserted into the capital for the third time. In the game, you play as a Lance ~~Corporal~~ in charge of a fire team of four men (ready-team-fire-assist) during the war.
